Close side profile photograph of a man with a tall topknot of long dark hair wrapped with a strand of rudraksha beads, a white horizontal vibhuti/tilak band across the forehead, a short beard and moustache, and a thin gold chain at the neck; the bare-shouldered figure's upper arm is orange-red. Beside him at left, an ornate silver-and-gold ceremonial vessel or staff is visible against a yellow-green backdrop. The page indicates a person was present, and the distinctive rudraksha-adorned long hair and ornaments give a probable appearance-based match for a person, shown in a performance or ritual setting.
